20 Years and counting...

Last night I attended the 20th Anniversary Alumni Homecoming of my high school batch of 1987. It gives you roughly an idea of how old I am so go figure.

The night was a blast! Alcohol was overflowing, the food was delicious but not too heavy, and the company was anything but dull.

There was a lot of catching up to do especially for those who are based abroad and came just to attend this special day.

Wow.

Nostalgic really as we had our venue at the school's Multi-Purpose Hall. The Hall has changed just a wee bit, I still wonder if the curtains at the stage have tasted a wash after all those years.

We can feel the camaraderie despite our different groups and barkadas during our high school days. Maturity does wonders in bridging the gap. There were a few teasings here and there especially for those who were once an item during our younger years. Some of these couples eventually end up together and raise a family but most of us ended up with someone else.

Hell, my ex-GF who happened to be the lead vocalist of this nice band was still her cool and accommodating self. There was hardly any tension between us as we had our pictures taken... well, the kiss was still nice and cute but that was just about it.

We sang and danced with the 80's music reverberating through the Hall. Yup, we cans still remember those dance steps as well. I wished that someone had the idea of putting up a motif by wearing 80's fashion and hairdo's but then again, that would take A WHOLE LOT OF FREAKIN' EFFORT.

Damn... those were the good old days.
